To the Shareholders

Dear Sir or Madam,

PROPOSALS FOR GENERAL MANDATES TO BUY BACK SHARES AND TO ISSUE SHARES AND RE-ELECTION OF RETIRING DIRECTORS AND NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

1. INTRODUCTION

The purpose of this circular is to provide you with information regarding the proposed general mandates to buy back Shares and to issue Shares and re-election of retiring Directors, and to seek the Shareholders’ approval at the Annual General Meeting in connection with the grant of the relevant general mandates and re-election of retiring Directors.

– 5 –

LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN

2. GENERAL MANDATE TO BUY BACK SHARES

At the annual general meeting of the Company held on 24th May 2021, a general mandate was given to the Directors to exercise the powers of the Company to buy back Shares up to a maximum of 10 per cent. of the total number of Shares in issue as at the date of passing the relevant ordinary resolution. Such mandate will lapse at the conclusion of the Annual General Meeting unless renewed at a general meeting of the Shareholders. An ordinary resolution will therefore be proposed at the Annual General Meeting to approve a general mandate to authorise the Company to buy back Shares.

Your attention is drawn to ordinary resolution no. 5(1) set out in the AGM Notice. Such ordinary resolution proposes to give a general and unconditional mandate to the Directors to exercise the powers of the Company to buy back during the Relevant Period (as defined in ordinary resolution no. 5(1) set out in the AGM Notice) Shares not exceeding 10 per cent. of the total number of Shares in issue at the date of passing the ordinary resolution no. 5(1).

An explanatory statement, as required under the Listing Rules to provide the requisite information regarding the Buy-back Mandate, is set out in the Appendix I of this circular.

3. GENERAL MANDATE TO ISSUE SHARES

At the Annual General Meeting, an ordinary resolution will also be proposed that the Directors be given a general and unconditional mandate to issue during the Relevant Period (as defined in ordinary resolution no. 5(2) set out in the AGM Notice) Shares representing up to 20 per cent. of the total number of Shares in issue at the date of passing the ordinary resolution no. 5(2) (i.e. not exceeding 57,533,935 Shares based on 20 per cent. of the total number of Shares in issue of 287,669,676 as at the Latest Practicable Date and assuming that such number of Shares in issue remains the same at the date of passing the ordinary resolution no. 5(2)). In addition, an ordinary resolution (ordinary resolution no. 5(3) set out in the AGM Notice) will be proposed to extend the Issue Mandate which would increase the limit of the Issue Mandate by adding to it the number of Shares bought back under the Buy-back Mandate.

4. RE-ELECTION OF RETIRING DIRECTORS

Pursuant to Article 103(A) of the Company’s articles of association, Mr. Patrick Ma Ching Hang, Mr. Edward Cheung Wing Yui and Mr. Yiu Kei Chung shall retire by rotation, and being eligible, offered themselves for re-election at the Annual General Meeting. Details of the Directors proposed to be re-elected at the Annual General Meeting are set out in Appendix II of this circular.

The Company has received from each of the independent non-executive Directors an annual written confirmation of independence. The Nomination Committee has assessed the independence of all independent non-executive Directors and affirmed that they have met the independence criteria set out in Rule 3.13 of the Listing Rules and remain independent.

LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN

The Nomination Committee, having reviewed the Board’s composition, nominated Mr. Patrick Ma Ching Hang, Mr. Edward Cheung Wing Yui and Mr. Yiu Kei Chung to the Board for it to recommend to Shareholders for re-election at the Annual General Meeting. The Nomination Committee has considered the background, skills, knowledge and experience of these retiring directors having regard to the nomination policy of the Company and the objective criteria (including but not limited to age, gender, cultural and educational background, professional experience, skills and knowledge), with due regard for the benefits of diversity as set out in the Company’s board diversity policy.

The Board, taking into account Mr. Ma, Mr. Cheung and Mr. Yiu’s respective contributions to the Board and their commitment to their roles, accepted the recommendation from the Nomination Committee and recommends to the Shareholders the proposed re-election of Mr. Patrick Ma Ching Hang, Mr. Edward Cheung Wing Yui and Mr. Yiu Kei Chung at the Annual General Meeting.

5. ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

At the Annual General Meeting, resolutions will be proposed to the Shareholders including re-election of retiring Directors, the Buy-back Mandate, the Issue Mandate and the extension of the Issue Mandate.

The AGM Notice is set out on pages 15 to 18 of this circular. A proxy form for use at the Annual General Meeting is enclosed. Whether or not you are able to attend the Annual General Meeting, you are requested to complete the accompanying proxy form in accordance with the instruction printed thereon and return the same to the Company’s Share Registrar, Computershare Hong Kong Investor Services Limited at 17M Floor, Hopewell Centre, 183 Queen’s Road East, Wanchai, Hong Kong as soon as possible and in any event not later than 48 hours (excluding any part of a day that is a public holiday) before the time of the Annual General Meeting or any adjournment thereof. Completion and return of the proxy form will not preclude Shareholders from attending and voting at the Annual General Meeting if they so wish.

6. VOTING BY WAY OF POLL

Pursuant to Rule 13.39(4) of the Listing Rules, all votes at the Annual General Meeting will be taken by poll except where the chairman, in good faith, decides to allow a resolution which relates purely to a procedural or administrative matter to be voted on by a show of hands and the Company will announce the results of the poll in the manner prescribed under Rule 13.39(5) of the Listing Rules.

7. RECOMMENDATION

The Directors believe that the Buy-back Mandate, the Issue Mandate, the extension of the Issue Mandate and re-election of retiring Directors are in the best interest of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole and accordingly the Directors recommend Shareholders to vote in favour of such resolutions to be proposed at the Annual General Meeting.

Yours faithfully, William MA Ching Wai Chairman

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

APPENDIX I

This Appendix serves as an explanatory statement, as required by Rule 10.06(b) of the Listing Rules, to provide requisite information to Shareholders for their consideration of the proposal to permit the buy-back of Shares not exceeding 10 per cent. of the total number of Shares in issue at the date of passing the ordinary resolution no. 5(1).

This Appendix also constitutes the memorandum as required under Section 239(2) of the Companies Ordinance.

1. Listing Rules

The Listing Rules permit companies with a primary listing on the Stock Exchange to buy back their fully-paid shares on the Stock Exchange subject to certain restrictions, the most important of which are summarised below:

(a) Source of funds

Such buy-back must be made out of funds which are legally available for such purpose in accordance with the company’s constitutional documents and the laws of the jurisdiction in which the company is incorporated or otherwise established.

(b) Maximum number of shares to be bought back

The shares proposed to be bought back by a company must be fully paid up. A maximum of 10 per cent. of the total number of shares of a company in issue as at the date of passing the relevant resolution approving the buy-back mandate may be bought back on the Stock Exchange.

(c) Shareholders’ approval

The Listing Rules provide that all proposed on-market buy-back of shares by a company with its primary listing on the Stock Exchange must be approved in advance by an ordinary resolution, either by way of a specific approval in relation to specific transactions or by a general mandate to the directors of the company to make such buy-back.

2. Shares

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the total number of Shares in issue was 287,669,676 Shares.

Subject to the passing of ordinary resolution no. 5(1) set out in the AGM Notice and on the basis that no further Shares are issued or bought back prior to the Annual General Meeting, the Company would be allowed under the Buy-back Mandate to buy back Shares up to the limit of 28,766,967 Shares representing 10 per cent. of the total number of Shares in issue at the Latest Practicable date.

3. Reasons for Buy-back

The Directors believe that the Buy-back Mandate affords the Company the flexibility and ability in pursuing the best interests for the Company and its Shareholders. Such buy-backs may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, be beneficial to the Shareholders by enhancing

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

APPENDIX I

the net asset and/or earnings per Share and will only be made when the Directors believe that such a buy-back will benefit the Company and its Shareholders. The Directors have no immediate plans to buy back Shares under the Buy-back Mandate.

4. Funding of Buy-back

In buying back Shares, the Company may only apply funds legally available for such purpose in accordance with its articles of association and the Laws of Hong Kong (including the Companies Ordinance and Listing Rules). Under the Companies Ordinance, payment in respect of a Share buy-back may be made out of the Company’s distributable profits and/or out of the proceeds of a new issue of Shares made for the purpose of the buy-back. The Directors propose that such buy-back of Shares would be appropriately financed by the Company’s internal resources and/or available banking facilities.

5. Impact of Buy-back

There might be material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing levels of the Company (as compared with the position disclosed in the audited financial statements contained in the 2021 annual report of the Company) in the event that the Buy-back Mandate was to be exercised in full at any time during the proposed buy-back period. However, the Directors do not propose to exercise the Buy-back Mandate to such extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on the working capital requirements or the gearing levels of the Company.

6. Share Prices

The highest and lowest prices at which the Shares have traded on the Stock Exchange during each of the previous twelve months before the printing of this circular were as follows:–

Shares

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

APPENDIX I

7. Undertakings and Directors’ Dealings and Core Connected Persons

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange that, so far as the same may be applicable, they will exercise the power of the Company to make buy-back pursuant to the Buy-back Mandate in accordance with the Listing Rules and the Laws of Hong Kong.

None of the Directors nor, to the best of their knowledge having made all reasonable enquiries, any of their close associates (as defined in the Listing Rules), have any present intention to sell any Shares to the Company or its subsidiaries under the Buy-back Mandate if the same is approved by the Shareholders.

No core connected person (as defined in the Listing Rules) of the Company has notified the Company that he has a present intention to sell Shares to the Company, or has undertaken not to do so, in the event that the Buy-back Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.

8. Takeovers Code

If a Shareholder’s proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases as a result of the Directors exercising the powers to buy back Shares pursuant to the Buy-back Mandate, such increase will be treated as an acquisition of voting rights for the purposes of Rule 32 of the Takeovers Code. As a result, a Shareholder or group of Shareholders acting in concert, could obtain or consolidate control of the Company and become obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rules 26 and 32 of the Takeovers Code.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, Mr. William Ma Ching Wai was taken to be interested in 164,744,839 Shares representing approximately 57.3 per cent. of the total number of Shares in issue. In the event that the Directors exercise in full the power to buy back Shares under the Buy-back Mandate, then (if the present shareholdings remain the same) the attributable shareholding of Mr. William Ma Ching Wai in the Company will be increased to approximately 63.6 per cent. of the total number of Shares in issue. In the event that the Directors exercise in full the power to buy back Shares pursuant to the Buy-back Mandate, an obligation to make a general offer to Shareholders under Rules 26 and 32 of the Takeovers Code will not arise. Save as aforesaid, the Directors are not aware of any consequences which may arise under the Takeovers Code as a result of any buy-back made under the Buy-back Mandate.

The Directors have no present intention to exercise the power to buy back Shares pursuant to the Buy-back Mandate to such an extent as to result in the number of Shares in issue held by the public being reduced to less than 25 per cent. of the total number of Shares in issue.

9. Share Buy-back made by the Company

The Company has not bought back any Shares (whether on the Stock Exchange or otherwise) in the six months prior to the Latest Practicable Date.
